The "Best Location in the Nation" is the claim of this world port located on Lake Erie. The 52-story Terminal Tower (center) is a Cleveland landmark. Lakefront Stadium (left) is home of Cleveland's Indians baseball and Browns fooball. Over 2 million people live in metropolitan Cleveland.

The 52-story Terminal Tower splits the Cleveland skyline like a towering cloud buster. It’s rightfully a city symbol. At the tower’s base is the renovated Regional Transit Authority’s light rail system. Inside is the ornate Tower City Center, home to a retail mall, food court, cinema, and a rich selection of hotels and restaurants.
